Quantity Take Off Meaning

Take off meaning in construction refers to a process for measuring all materials for certain elements of a building project. The term “take off” means to take measurements from drawings to ascertain quantities.

The quantities can then be used to work out the required materials, plant, labour and other items which may need to be factored in to estimate the cost of this particular element.

Construction take-off meaning and quantity take-off meaning are effectively the same thing. Think of it like reverse engineering how much quantity you need of certain items for making a cake.

If a cake was presented to you with no ingredients the take-off task would be to find out how much flour, eggs, bi-card soda, icing etc would be required to make that cake again.
